1/17 shoulders and triceps
So my wrists and right shoulder have been bugging me I wrap the wrists real tight now. And hope and pray the shoulder will heal through nutrition and positive thoughts. Ha ha.
I seem to have lost my mojo on the push press. My pr is 215. That was done at my house. I don't know if having my reflection staring at me in the gym is a mind **** or what. But I have not been able to hit 215 as of recent.
Push press. Got frustrated early in.
185x1. 205x 1. 210x fail. 185 x 3.
Seated military. 135 5x10
Slow close grip bench 205 3x4
100 rep band push downs.
Reverse peck deck 3x10

Notes : man it blows getting old. 39 is fats approaching and I am falling apart. Knee surg at 20. Back surg at 30. I am gun shy of squats and dead lifts. So let's front squat. That kills my wrist. So I am nursing that. Grip gave out when loading the bar yesterday I managed to drop a 45 on my foot. No real damage done luckily. Shoulder has been giving issues on and off for past few years. Been told might have a slight tear. But it should be heal do. Ya own by now That's acting up. The sling band bench is definetly a savior for the delts. I might go that route solely until I am pain free. Gonna lighten up on the push press. And use the gay cross grip for front squats. It drop them and do overhead or goblet squats instead

1/23. Back and shoulders
Not going to be able to workout tomorrow. Had to hit shoulders today in two sessions. I have the option of working out at the house. Or 2 other gyms. I use the house when I am off and feel like it. Other wise I use the gym. I use a different gym on days that I work. Each place had its own pros and cons. I tend to use the smith machine more than I like too. But it's a safety net since I am sans partner. The gym at work has a smith machine that is very true in weight. The one at the other gym is very flattering. I estimate 20-30 lbs more can be lifted over free weights. Plus then add the factor of not needing to use core and stabilizing muscles that are needed for free weight lifts and you get my picture. The good thing is you can focus solely on pushing the weight and over loading the targeted muscles

Had an epic arm pump today, thanks to Jack3d advanced, and modern bcaa+. I had un*****ed intensity and was able to keep rest periods to a minimum with great recovery set to set. For me when it comes to ramping up the intensity, this is where a great bcaa intra workout really shines.
Some people complain about mix ability of modern bcaa +. An easy remedy to this issue is to mix it prior to beginning the workout and letting it set in the fridge for a while. When it comes time to lift just give a few shakes and It's all good.
The new advanced jack3d formula had me a little scarred. I am hyper sensitive to yohimbe in a very bad way. Jitters, cold sweats, nausea, anxiety, and this lasts for about 8 hours, so I stay away from it. I was very excited to try this new formula, I have about 15 kinds of pwo's under my belt. After that many they all tend to be so so. I proceeded with caution here and used only half a scoop. I cannot attest what a full scoop feels like. I did not experience the beloved beta alanine tingles at this dose. What I did experience is a skin tearing pump. Great focus, and aggression. Mix ability was spot on, no clumps, or chunks. Taste was wonderfull, as other pwo's can make you want to choke! My workout was different today from what I usually do, so I cannot attest to any specific strength gains.

Got the idea of smith skull crushers from Rich Piana videos. I love them. I do straight bar and curl bar skull crushers as well. The smith has zero wrist pain, zero balance issues, just unrack and push the weight. In the event of going too heavy, push the bench back and turn it into a bench press. Next week is game on back to normal weight/reps/sets .
